Kitchens are definitely the heart of any home. It’s where we spend most of our time and where everyone gathers to share a meal, chat, or hang out. So, making your kitchen feel more comfortable, cozy, and appealing is essential. Some homeowners can be skeptical of placing rugs in the kitchen but after reading this blog post, we believe you’ll want one for your kitchen too.

Kitchen Rugs Models

Are kitchen rugs in style? Absolutely! Performing a quick Google search of “Kitchen Rugs” will result in hundreds of blogs talking about them. Since rugs are the best way to tie a room together, placing one in your kitchen will help you create your dream home. When it comes to designing kitchen rugs, the options are virtually endless. Let’s look at kitchen rug models to give you some ideas.

  • Geometric Kitchen Rugs: The modern and contemporary style of geometric rugs will definitely upscale your kitchens. Interior designers have used geometric rugs since they work well with almost any design theme. Their bold lines and repetitive nature make them stunning pieces.
  • Oriental Kitchen Rugs: Oriental rugs have rich, vibrant colors with traditional and eye-catching designs. Their traditional characteristics create a magical feeling in any space they are placed in. They originate from Asian countries and have many different styles. 
  • Bohemian Kitchen Rugs: If you are a free-spirited, unconventional, and artistic personality, then bohemian rugs are just the thing for you. They are the perfect statement pieces that showcase a piece of your personality. They are intricate and busy on the floor and can easily be considered art pieces. Bohemian rugs can be used virtually in any setting, so they are total life savers in home décor. 
  • Floral Kitchen Rugs: If you wish to add warmth to your kitchen picking a floral rug can do the trick. Floral rugs are inspired by nature. They can have bold, colorful floral patterns or more neutral and earthy tones. Depending on your color palette, floral rugs can be the finishing piece to tie all design elements together. 
  • Abstract Kitchen Rugs: When it comes to abstract rugs, there are no set rules to describe them. They can utilize lines, colors, and shapes like abstract expressionist art, with no specific or recognizable patterns. Abstract rugs are the perfect way to add character and elevate your kitchen décor. Their wide range of colors and patterns can make them harder to choose from, but they are worth the time.
  • Jute Kitchen Rugs: Jute is a natural fiber traditionally spun into coarse threads woven into beautiful pieces of floor mats. The organic feel of jute rugs can appeal to you and your guests. The rich texture and natural tones of jute are great for masking minor spills and stains. They naturally come in various shades of golden-brown color, so the color palette is a bit narrow. If your kitchen design can use a golden-brown tone, then jute kitchen rugs can be the piece to finish your design. 

What Rugs Are Good for the Kitchen

There is a wide variety of mats to choose from when it comes to kitchen rugs. With so many options, it can take time to pick the right one. Here are some of our suggestions to point you in the right direction.

  • Washable Rugs: Kitchen rugs are subject to spills and stains, so picking a washable rug is an excellent idea since they are easy to clean. Also, kitchen mats will protect your kitchen floor from nasty stains. You can easily put a washable rug in the washing machine before the spill becomes a permanent stain.
  • Flat-weave Rugs: Using flat-weave rugs instead of high-pile rugs is a great idea since they are easier to clean. Flat-weave rugs can easily be cleaned with a broom or damp rag. If you wish to dispose of crumbs, using a vacuum quickly is a great solution.
  • Synthetic Rugs: Since you are preparing, cooking, and plating food in the kitchen, food messes or spills are a danger to your kitchen rugs. Synthetic rugs became popular over the years because of their excellent looks, easy-to-clean properties, and lower prices. They are suitable for both indoors and outdoors. 
  • Natural Fiber Rugs: Natural fiber rugs are almost a great choice for any space, but when it comes to kitchens, materials like cotton or wool can be problematic. Yes, they look fantastic but be careful not to spill a glass of wine or sauce on them. These rugs don’t clean as easily as the other options we suggested earlier.

Small, Medium, and Large Sizes Kitchen Rugs

Size is one of the most important decisions when purchasing a rug for your room. It is always a great idea to start by measuring the dimensions of the space you wish to buy a rug. 

A runner in front of the cabinets and sink makes sense if you have a kitchen island. Runners are perfect for narrow spaces, and they can make smaller kitchens appear more spacious. Runner rugs are excellent for adding extra style, depth, and comfort to the rooms they are placed in. They are a kitchen rug model you should be considering.

If you have a large kitchen, area rugs are an option to go. These bigger rugs will allow you to make eye-catching designs while adding warmth and comfort. There are a lot of rug sizes to choose from. They can be as small as 2’x3’ and then all the way up to 8’x10’.

Washable Kitchen Rugs to the Rescue

Whether selecting an area rug or a runner for your kitchen, the best choice is always to pick a washable kitchen rug. Since kitchens are high-traffic areas and not only, they are prone to spills and stains if you are not careful. Since you will be spending a lot of time in the kitchen for long periods, picking an anti-fatigue mat might be your thing.

Synthetic and cotton-style rugs are machine washable. It is always a good idea to check the manufacturer’s instructions before throwing them in the washing machine. Most rugs can be spot cleaned without a washing machine. Especially rugs with water-resistant non-slip backing require a spot clean since these backings can be damaged in the washing machines. Drying your carpets hanging outside is essential instead of using a dryer. The heat of the dryers can damage some fibers and backings of your rugs. Drying naturally may take longer, but it is the safer option.

Kitchen Rugs Prices

Kitchen rug price varies mainly on materials used and size. Each variable we’ve mentioned above can change the cost of the rug. Factors like hand-woven or machine-woven rugs can also determine the price. It is always a good idea to check and compare prices on the internet to make an informed decision.
